Event Details

We are so proud to have reached the 5-year mark and we’re throwing a big party to celebrate. We hope you’ll join us & help to make this year’s birthday fundraiser bigger & better than ever!

Approximately 600 artists and photographers produced work at the lab in 2016, almost doubling the number of community members served from 2015, & we look forward to seeing this number continue to grow! Your generous support is essential as we continue to solidify the organization as a permanent staple in the Chicago arts community.

So come out! Enjoy food and drinks, win some prints and prizes in our raffles, enjoy the photobooth & support one of your favorite non-profits!

This year’s birthday fundraiser will be hosted at Fulton Street Collective, one of our lovely neighbors at Hubbard Street Lofts! We will have a Print Raffle featuring prints from our amazing Artists-in-Residence and members of the lab community. We will also have a General Raffle featuring items donated by some of our favorite community businesses and organizations.

Saturday, June 10, 2017 from 6:00 PM to 10:00 PM (CDT)

Organizer

LATITUDE

LATITUDE is a 501(c)(3) organization located in Chicago. We maintain a digital lab with high-end scanning and printing equipment, operate an artist in residence program, and organize ongoing arts programming. We gladly welcome all members of the public, including artists, enthusiasts, photographers, students, and educators. Our location, hours, and contact info can be found here.

LATITUDE is operated by small staff and a number of Lab Assistants who receive ongoing lab access and training. The lab is an educational and arts production facility for hundreds of artists per year, and our related programming (e.g. talks, workshops, and panel discussions) attracts many more. We are proud to be supported by grants from the Foundation for Contemporary Arts and The Richard H. Driehaus Foundation.
